Title: Slice of Life Air Date: June 13. 2015 Written By: MA Larson Synopsis: As Twilight Sparkle, Fluttershy, Applejack, Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie and Rarity battle a monster, the rest of Ponyville rushes to make it to a wedding on time.
U R NOT E

How did you feel when Derpy sacrificed herself to save Twilight from turning into a statue? All things that happened was unexpected for me. First Princess Cadance, then Princess Celestia Princess and Luna and finally Twilig-nope Derpy with her horn hat. She sure fooled Grubber though.
I felt both honored and sad when Derpy was the one that turned into a statue. At the same time, I was also in quite a shock and had chills all over my body when that quick chaos happened. I knew if Discord was here (not the balloon version that Pinkie Pie made), he would snap all the villains but what Derpy did, was amazing. Finally, MLP movie gave a very special role to Derpy, although she is not from mane 6.
I, myself do not love Derpy the most but I was too emotional on that part. Also, I was sad when we only see cutie mark crusaders only in one scene with no dialogue. Fluttershy's dialogues were so few too and she was my favorite out of mane six.
Afterall, I loved the movie, it was more than I expected and it was sure surprising and amazing.
So, how did you feel when Derpy sacrificed herself?

Welcome to the International Derpy Day Trivia on the MLP Forums.
I know what you're all probably thinking right now. Since when is this an official day?
The answer? It is because of reasons that most likely involve magic.
Anyway, no doubt you know just how popular Derpy has been in the MLP fandom ever since she first became recognized amongst the many background characters that exist. Even though she does have an official name in Friendship is Magic, I'll be utilizing her fandom name because I'd rather not cause a scene. International Derpy Day Trivia... There is a badge associated with Derpy that you can win--I'm sure you all know what it looks like--but you will need to answer these questions. No... none of them are derpish in any way even though that would've made things more interesting. Instead, these questions are taken from both Friendship is Magic and Equestria Girls.
Of course EQG would be included here. After all, I make sure it gets included in these trivia challenges.
Ahem! Who do you submit your answers to? Why @Derpy herself! Don't worry. Nothing is going to go wrong here. Here are ten questions for you to sink your teeth into plus a bonus. This last one can be used as a substitute answer in case you get one of the regular ones wrong. As before, you can work together with others though the difficulty could change depending on how you go about it. Finally, you have the usual four days to submit answers.
In other words, I will lock this thread sometime on Friday.
Remember! Submit to @Derpy! Not me, @Derpy!
Are we good? Excellent. Here are your questions.
1. In which episode does Derpy first speak in?
2. Who does Derpy fight in 'Lesson Zero' due to Twilight's spell?
3. What is Derpy's Costume in Luna Eclipsed?
4. After being absent for a long time, Derpy returns in 'Rainbow Falls'. What does she end up doing?
5. What does Derpy deliver to Starlight Glimmer in 'To Where and Back Again Pt 1'?
6. What does Derpy mess up in 'Slice of Life'?
7. How does Derpy make a first impression at the School of Friendship in 'School Raze'?
8. Derpy gave Rarity quite a lot of stress during 'The Best Gift Ever'. What exactly did she do?
9. It can be said that Derpy is similar to a famous storybook character who was 'always difficult to find in a crowd' due to people trying to spot her. Who is this character?
10. Flash Sentry and Derpy have a sort of running gag in the Equestria Girls series. What is it?
Bonus: In 'Rainbow Rocks', Derpy and two other characters had their own band. What are the names of the other two band members? What instruments did each of them play?

I honestly don't believe in ships, until the episode Slice of Life came. Not only did doctor and Derpy look cute together but in a way it made sense. So I saw that they're was fan clubs for some ships but I couldn't find a Derpy ship Doctor Hooves fan club so I made one.

What animation error can you remember the most?
As for me, over all other animation errors, I remember the green apple that gets spit out as a red apple the most. Even over Cyclops Noteworthy, the alicorn filly at the Magic Kindergarden, and Derpy Hooves.
I don't know why, but I don't really consider those to be animation errors, even though they really are.
If you want to know about the animation errors for the show, there is a series on Youtube called "My Little Bloopers: Mistakes are FOREVER." There, all the errors are pointed out.
Some of them are:
-Cheerilee's wrong tail
-AJ's missing freckles
-Double wing/hoof/head/horn/whatever
-Bad layering

Hey guys I just saw this and it was surprisingly very sad. I don’t know why but don’t get mad at Hasbro,let’s just watch the video and share our thoughts on our beloved Derpy. #SaveDerpy
Rules: no perverted pictures
no getting mad at Hasbro
love derpy
Forgot to add,how silly of me

I just watched the trailers of MLP Movie carefully once more. Although I removed my hopes for Sunset Shimmer and even Starlight Glimmer (although she appears on background), where is Derpy Hooves? I didn't see her in any scenes of the trailer. I even saw Berry Punch and Tree Hugger, I mean don't you think Derpy deserves a seen even more than Bulk Biceps? Where is she? Please put her in the movie, at least we need to see her. I mean Night Glider and Party Favor are there although they do not live in Canterlot and never been to any celebrations happened. In addition, if they are there, where is Double Diamond and Sugar Belle? We also see three princesses in one scene, and I did not see cutie mark crusaders or Shining Armor too. Most importantly still where is Derpy? (I also did not see Doctor Whooves, Bon Bon, Granny Smith and Big Macintosh.)

So I did a sky theme with night themes and star themes and using themes a lot in the wording. cloud I took more to Derpy this time in once more hitting this minimalist style I've seemed to take too a bit in the last few wallpapers. Ok A lot! Just I took to keep things simple, used mostly star brushes and cloud and used a neon effect to outline the stars and a slight glow effect on them. Did a little lighting effect on Derpy to make her look more part of the night in the moon and aim in how the light would hit her in the stars also. All done in Gimp.

In the earlier seasons of the show, seasons 1-4, Derpy usually stays in the background just waiting for us to look for her! It's a nice "where's Waldo" kind of thing! Now that Derpy is out and about all the time, it ruins that game! She's adorable, no doubt! She's a clumsy dork and we love her for it! But do we like her better in the BG so we can be excited when we find her hidden?
Which do you like better? Where's Derpy, or Derpy being out and about?

Not sure if this is the best for discussion, but there seem to be a few ponies who's cutie mark doesn't seem to match with them or their talent. For example:
The ponies Minuette and Derpy don't seem to have cutie marks matching what would seem to be their talent. Minuette is usually seen as a dentist despite her cutiemark being an hourglass (yes I know it is a joke but it makes no sense for her cutie mark), and Derpy, who seems to be a mailmare/mail pony despite having bubbles.
I can kind of see Derpy, but it doesn't seem to be a talent still. Minuette, though being a background pony, hasn't been shown to have anything to do with her cutie mark. It sometimes just is a design that looks nice, which is probably the case production-wise.
There are probably other ponies like this. What do you think?

Hey, guys, I just posted my most recent story: Ponies Protecting Ponies.
The premise is pretty simple: a select few background characters are members of a secret organization acting behind-the-scenes, and this story explores their involvment with Nightmare Moon's return in the first two episodes. Originally I was going to do an episode-like format with each chapter parodying a different episode from the show, but just after writing up the first two I had around thirty thousand words, and I realized that I had something much bigger on my hands. I may still treat this like a pilot or a movie that spawns a TV series kind of thing, but I'm waiting to see how reception goes first. So far I've only got the first chapter up, but the next (and much larger) chapter should be out before too long.
If you want more information on what this story is about and the concept behind it, feel free to check out my blog page about it; bit of a long read though.
Hope you all enjoy!

So this idea flew into my head a while back, and I thought it would be funny.
Let's get minty from gen 3 and face her against Derpy/ditsy doo in a Epic rap battles of history style song.
Problem is....I don't really know how to write raps well, outside of fast loosely rhyming couplets. I have a few ideas,and will elaborate if asked.
Thanks,

I may never understand how I can be a good editor for others but not myself.
This is a one-shot, independent story that I finally got around to writing. I mainly need help with syntax but I'm having difficulty finding beta readers with good critique and input or suggestions. I've gotten a lot of general praise which is very nice but that doesn't help me when I'm trying to submit something to the rigors of Daily Equestria. (I've come to learn they are a very tough lot to get stories published through, on a level of hatred.)
My other main concern was wondering if Gabby could or should be removed. The fandom seems split and divided at war as to whether she's a likable character or not.
The title is a play on words from the unofficial creed of the United States Postal Service.
PREMISE: Discord, tired of late or lost deliveries from the Equestrian Postal Service, files a complaint that endangers the pony mailing business. With a new letter labeled as 'Urgent', the fate of Equestrian mail lies with Gabby and Derpy as a delivery partners into the Realm of Chaos. Will they deliver it in a time fitting a Lord of Chaos? Will they make it there at all?
Genre: Slice of Life
Audience: General
Original Characters?: Only filler for the background
Word Count: (current) ~2,300
Complete: 45% (trying to make it with 3 or fewer chapters, hopefully none)

A line of bustling, arguing ponies at the Ponyville Post Office extended from the counter of three busy mail ponies to nearly out the door. But it was always busy at 11:53am. Ponies finishing or starting lunch breaks taking the opportunity to come and deliver or pick up mail and packages.
An irritated Earth mare was at the far left ticket counter, complaining about the packaging she received. “Just look at this mess!” She proclaimed stamping her brown hooves on the counter. “The string is barely holding, the box is crumpled,—humph—it even says ‘fragile’. And I know my hubby paid extra for a premium shipping rate.”
The tan mustache on the Pegasus behind the counter twitched left and right as he bent low, inspected the box, and then looked at the tag. He raised an eyebrow. “Ma’am,” his eyes lowered into a disrespected frown as he twisted his hoof, allowing the tag to turn showing ‘Cheap Sky: LOW PRIORITY’ written on it. “Please keep in mind the policy,” he then tilted his head twice towards a sign beside him reading, ‘Unofficial markings on boxes are ignored for shipping handling and rates’ thus implying the invalidity of the ‘fragile’ stamp on the box.
He puffed out some air and shook his head. “I’m sorry, there isn’t anything we can really do. The box was not marked for any special care or express delivery.”
Her eye twitched. “I cannot believe this!” She gripped the string in her mouth and yanked before ripping the top of the box open revealing a foal’s pillow.
The stallion stared at her unimpressed and too downtrodden to laugh or smile. He mumbled with a sigh. “Don’t go postal—good rope is too expensive these days.”
The mare blushed with a sincere smile, but then she shook her head and pulled out the pillow with her mouth. “Well, it looks crumpled and very squished.”
The stallion rose an eyebrow. “Would you like your 1 silver bit refunded?”
The brown mare stuck up her nose and moved the pillow around, revealing a picture of Discord. “Well I…” her eyes popped open as she looked at the image. “What in the moon is…?”
The image re-shifted and grew in depth and size until the draconequus was at full height, stretching with grumbled, protested grunting. He cracked his neck until his head twisted off and he placed it on his body backwards to face the mail pony behind the counter. The Pegasi rose an eyebrow again, just waiting for his luck to sink so low the room would explode into a mess.
“For First Class priority shipping,” Discord said matter factly while gesturing with his asymmetrical arms and body still facing the brown mare, who was now cowering behind the pillow, “you ponies sure do take a long time to get them anywhere.” He put his lion paw on the wall and wrung his deer hoofed leg around and leaned to the side. “But then I suppose that’s nothing new. Unless…” he contorted his body in various ways to try righting himself forward, “there’s been a mix up. I’m here to file a complaint.”
The stallion sighed deeply with a frown. Despite the frightening display, he’s seen it all in the Equestrian Postal Service. “Sir, if you will please step back to the end of the line, we will be very happy to assist you.”
Discord leaned over the counter with a smirk and snapped the claws of his eagle-talons. String and cords from the packages in the room turned into dancing imitations of snakes, weaving together and tying along the ponies before dragging them in a sudden jerk out the door, their yelling tuned to the violent rush of a passing roller coaster.
“Well it seems that the line was caught and there was bigger fish to fry.”
The stallion used the cleft of his hoof to scratch his mustache. “What is the nature of your complaint sir?”
“Well first off, doesn’t anypony know who I am? Maybe that would explain the lack of urgency in your establishment.”
“Mister Discord,” the pony continued in his monotonous groan, “I am truly sorry for the lack of timing on your deliveries. We here at E.P.S. are always looking for ways to improve the quality of our service and punctuality. We hope you continue doing business with us and next time I can offer you a discount card for your troubles.”
The mailpony reached behind the counter and pulled up a basket. “Please take a muffin on us,” he bent below again and came up with a discount card in his mouth. Discord screeched his teeth together and looks up at the words in this paragraph to ensure what is happening is really happening. Seriously, is this all I am to you readers? Discord thinks. Comedic relief in the form of irony? Satirizing my self-depreciating situations with surreal comedy?
Discord swiped the entire basket of muffins. “With as many times as you continue to mess up with your late—or lost—mail, I do believe I’m entitled to oh—just about all of these.”
“Mister Discord, have you considered a P.O. Box? Deliveries to the Realm of Chaos have gone up in price considerably. Considering that we rush every delivery and sometimes lose mailponies, we can no longer guarantee an estimated time of arrival nor the assurance deliveries will…”
Discord plugged the mailpony’s mouth with a muffin. “Blah, blah, blah. All I hear are excuses! ‘Pee Oh Box’ here! I am insulted!” Discord used magic to hold the basket in place so he could slap his hands on his face and drag it down so that his eyeballs rolled down with a rattle. “Do you know how long and difficult a teleportation is to this place? Your suggestion is unacceptable.”
The Pegasus sighed and puckered his lips.
Discord turned to walk out the door when his pale yellow eyeballs fell out of their sockets and rolled along the ground. “Oh, there was something else that nearly slipped my mind.”
The eyeballs rolled up along the edge of the counter before coming to a rest at the center. They blinked up at him before merging to form a reddish, inky puddle that turned into a ticking clock. “If I don’t get my next delivery in a time befitting a Lord of Chaos, then your letters and packages will be delivering newborn monsters from my realm as pets for those Equestrian residents who use your service.”
The stallion looked up and sighed as he glanced back in the establishment. “I will be sure to send your major threat aimed at the sole mail delivery service in Equestria to the highest of management.”
Discord came back and wrapped his eagle-talon arm around the mailpony. “Oh fantastic!” the puddle on the counter reformed into eyeballs that blinked. “I can clearly see that somepony is going to get things right.” He took his eyeballs in his lion paw and poked them back in place before vanishing.
The mailpony muttered. “Well maybe my job will finally come to an end and I can seek out unemployment and disability. Next.” He looked around at the room void of ponies and allowed himself to smile a bit. “Making bits standing around doing nothing.”

Flying into the bridge backwards with a bonk came Ms. Derpy holding her delicate, fresh-baked basket of muffins. Her eyes tilted and spun in a dizzy swirl but she was alright—and more importantly, so were the muffins. With a grin she looked back and flew forward a bit before spinning her wheat-golden tail in a helicopter whirl, buzzing herself over the bridge this time before rotating in place and continuing her way.
She looked back briefly at the bridge that she avoided smashing her muffins into and perked up her head in pride with eyes closed. But as the grey Pegasus looked at her direction of flight her expression drooped.
“Soggy muffins,” she mumbled as she saw the visage of a large tree growing in size at an alarming rate. She ducked under only to find herself spiraling into the busy traffic of Ponyville, zigzagging this way and that, dodging ponies, carts, and buildings.
* * *
At the Ponyville Post Office just before 2:30pm, the mailponies were gathering for the second shift pep talk in preparation for the late afternoon rush. Front and center of the gathered two dozen workers or so was an elder mare Unicorn with red hues and a faded orange coat. Her cutie mark sported a saddlebag with a gold star. This would be Saddle Star, the lead mailmare of Ponyville’s Equestrian Postal Service.
“Now please, attention everypony,” Saddle Star started as she looked down from the podium. The mailponies began to hush. “I have a very important announcement. As you all… wait—where is…?”
“Oh no,” one of the male Pegasi said, “She jinxed it.”
At that moment, everypony ducked for cover a moment before Derpy burst through the window, spinning on the ground and colliding into the wall. Her eyes rattled as each spun separately but she was smiling regardless.
“I brought the new batch of muffins as quickly as I could.” With her head scrunched on the ground in a headstand she looked left and right. “Did I miss anything?”
“Yes,” Saddle Star said as she up-righted herself and used her gold magic to realign her blue cap on her head, “you missed everypony in the room on another one of your magnificent crash landings.”
Derpy’s eyes tilted opposite as her eyebrows caved in with confusion. She wasn’t sure if that was praise or ridicule. But since it seemed nopony was hurt and the muffins for delivery were safe, she shrugged and tipped her legs over before wobbling her way to a seat.
Saddle Star cleared her throat. “Yes, I have a very important announcement. As you know, mail deliveries to the—customer—known as Discord—resident of the Realm of Chaos is a difficult creature to bring deliveries to. He made a formal complaint and should we not satisfy his needs, we are going to be in trouble. He said he would include a newborn monster from his realm in all our deliveries across Equestria!”
As Derpy raised a hoof to speak, one of the stallions stood. “We lost Bucky and Rucksack earlier this month trying to deliver mail to that dreadful place. And the volunteer list to getting mail to Discord is running thin.”
The other ponies quickly began to speak up in rancorous commentary as Derpy shook her hoof more, her teeth clenched in earnest. Saddle Star lowered her eyelids and puckered her lips to the side. “I understand the grievances and concern.”
When the ruckus finally settled, the grey mare with a bubbly cutie mark was the only one up—up in the air by now—hoof raised and swinging violently and her other arm now supporting it.
Saddle Star rolled her eyes. “Yes, what is it?”
The Pegasus stopped flapping her wings and sunk back down into her seat. She raised each hoof in a shrug. “Why don’t we just tell Princess Celestia? Or at least Princess Twilight?”
Saddle Star picked up the papers at the podium and adjusted them. “Even if it is ‘reformed’ Discord, we do not treat residents and customers in this way. We are a service and we will serve them. Besides, corporate policy states that doing so results in getting fired. No more pay, no more benefits, no more retirement.”
The other ponies had a wide-eyed blank stare. “Huh,” on in the back said putting a hoof to his chin, “makes sense. It’s corporate after all, since when do they do anything reasonable?”
Saddle Star coughed and cleared her throat. “But I have good news. We are now outsourcing contracts to mail delivery into dangerous and difficult areas.”
At that moment the door to the side swung open with a crash. In the dust and darkness stood the body of a young Griffon, lion tail twisting back and forth as if looking for the next prey or series of adventure.
“Ahhhhh yeah! Who’s ready to kick some flank in the Realm of Chaos on a delivery?”
The head pony at the podium curled her head away and raised hoof at the Griffon’s direction. “Everypony, meet—Gabby.”
The mailpony who encountered Discord commented monotone, “Griffons are now taking over our jobs as contract workers. How nice.”
Derpy walked up and took the Griffon’s right paw and shook it violently. “Nice ta meet you, Gabby!”
Gabby used her strength to pick up Derpy one-armed and shake her violently back. “Alright! Some enthusiasm here! Say, can she be my partner?” Gabby put Derpy back down and she didn’t seem too dazed, though she wobbled a tiny bit—always flashing a grin.
Saddle Star grimaced. “B—but…”
“Sure!” Derpy said closing her eyes.
Saddle Star zipped from the podium and started dragging the grey Pegasus. “Excuse us. Hey, are you crazy?”
Derpy looked confused. “Uh—not last I checked. But I haven’t seen a doctor to be sure. Oh, except the Doctor, but I don’t think he’s that kind of doctor.”
Saddle Star shook her head. “No, no, no! We need you here for muffin baking! And well—it’s dangerous delivery work. I don’t want to see you get hurt, well, not any more than you already get. And you just met Gabby! You don’t know anything about her.”
“I’ll be fine. Cross my heart, hope to fly,” she signed with her right hoof, “stick a cupcake in my—ouch.”
Saddle Star pulled her hooves away from Derpy’s shoulders and looked down. “Well, considering the severe lack of willing volunteers, we don’t have much a choice anyway. Just be on standby for when Discord has his next letter or package to be delivered.”
Derpy’s eyes straightened for a moment. “Oh! That reminds me,” she reached in the basket of muffins and pulled out an envelope. She spoke with it in her mouth. “I’ve gawt on’ ‘ear to Discawd. Urvent.”

It seems to be common belief that Derpy's cutiemark are bubbles, but they seem more like rocks or possibly bubble wrap to me.
